Criteria for successful consolidation
A successful M2M standards consolidation should fulfill at least the following criterion.
Key and influential verticals engaged;
Balance;
Cost effective;
End to End;
Fairness;
Not overlapping the ongoing works in existing organizations such as ITU and 3GPPs；
Easy access to meetings 3

4. Verticals Involvement

Verticals Involvement
Taking into account the application status, business scale and market perspective in the world, it is proposed to give a prior consideration to approaching the following key and influential vertical industries:
Smart Grid;
ITS;
eHealth; 4

5. Technical Scope of M2M Consolidation
Confidential
Technical Scope of M2M Consolidation
The Group shall have the responsibility to develop and maintain an end-to-end view for a globally interoperable framework to facilitate Machine-to-Machine (M2M) business, with attention to Service aspects, specifically:
— To prepare, approve and maintain the necessary set of Technical Specifications and Technical Reports including:
- Service aspects;
- High level and detailed level service architecture;
- Terminal/Module aspects
- Specification of Application Programming Interfaces (API) to the M2M service components (management entities, application components including terminal/module, etc.);
- Identification and naming of devices and applications in a service level domain;
- Interoperability;
- Test specifications in support of interoperability;
- Information Models;
- Security and Privacy aspects of M2M service;
- Charging aspects of services
— To consider the evolution of M2M
— To facilitate dissemination and usage of the developed Technical Specifications and Technical Reports
— To facilitate awareness of its activities and of solutions it develops 5

6. Why the M2M terminals/modules are important for M2M Consolidation

Why the M2M terminals/modules are important for M2M Consolidation
Market
As per market forecasts, M2M terminals/modules have a huge market potential.
The cost of M2M terminals/modules is very important to drive the M2M market;
Solution
M2M related terminals/modules providers could be developing ‘vertical specific’ M2M solutions.
M2M related terminals/modules providers joining the M2M consolidation will benefit the M2M ecosystem
Categorization
It is very important to analyze M2M related terminal/module requirements for categorization. This will result in benefit to the whole M2M industry chain especially for the chipset, terminals/modules providers.
Interface
The interfaces of terminals/modules are very important for the integration and deployment of the M2M system and solution. 6

7. Suggestions on Terminals/Modules Issue
Confidential
Suggestions on Terminals/Modules Issue
To consider inviting M2M related terminals/modules providers to join M2M consolidation.
To set up a M2M related terminals/modules standardization group.
To pay attention to the analysis of M2M related terminal/module requirements for categorization of M2M terminals. This will result in benefit to the whole M2M industry.
To pay attention to the standardization of the interfaces of terminals/modules. 7

9. Secretariat of M2M Consolidation
Confidential
Secretariat of M2M Consolidation
CCSA insists on the same opinion with that of last meeting, namely:
A co-located secretariat will be more effective;
Staff of secretariat could be provided by each SDO, which may facilitate SDOs’ involvement and reduce the cost of the M2M consolidation as well. 9
